Overview
About Me
A journey of thousand miles begins with a single step
PEOPLE THINK I'M IN A BAD MOOD, JUST BECAUSE I'M BEING QUIET
I think alot, but don't say much. I listen and learn..
PHILOSOPHY
- Don't tell me what to do and I don't tell where you should go!)
- There will always be people who'll hurt you,
so you need to continue trusting, just be careful.
- Don't struggle so much, best things happen when not expected.
- Aut Caesar, aut nullus
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Attend CS meetings and gatherings, getting to know new people and making friends from all over the world. Really enjoy mingling around with locals, as it allows to feel the culture more deeply and makes understand the mentality closer.
Sometimes in one evening have to bend the brain by switching between english/spanish/russian/malay, but isn't it exciting?
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
In Moscow never really hosted or surfed, my surfing experience started when i came to Malaysia, KL for second time while looking for a permanent place to stay, it took me quite a while. So my first experience was kinda extreme and last-minute, but it was positive though :)
I don't have opportunity to host ppl at the place where I stay, so just meet and hangout with CSers outdoors.
Interests
Foreign languages (English, Spanish, Chinese, Malay),
Asia and its culture, people, food, nature etc. I just feel my soul is 80% asian :D
Enjoy travelling, try to quit shopping (as it's my drug :D), love dogs, fitness (when i'm not too lazy), hiking, walks, meeting with friends and just be surrounded by nice people. From each person we take smth for ourselves, right?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Moved to Malaysia with no much savings and keep struggling to survive but loving it here!
Teach, Learn, Share
TEACH.. i quit my studies after 4 years as realized i cannot perform as a teacher. But if someone needs advice or asks my opinion, i share all my knowledge and experience - as i really ENJOY giving. So here comes SHARING.
LEARN.. sometimes my stubborness doesn't let me learn even on my own mistakes, continue crushing my head into walls. The more so, someone's experience is never a lesson for me. I need to go thru everything by myself - and people that surround me, the events happening, and life itself is continuous learning.
So CS project gives opportunity for people to become closer in all the ways: teach-learn-share..
What I Can Share with Hosts
As mostly I have only traveled in SEA and India - could share stories and moments from those trips. Also give tips if anyone planning to visit Russia. And of course, tell the world about delicious Malaysian food, kind and open people and amazing nature..
